2018-10-19 1. Introduction CCpilot VI is a 3.5" full-colour display with Linux operating system. The open LinX software platform offers a choice of powerful tools for application development. This, together with a QVGA high brightness display and hardware accelerated 2D, 3D and vector graphics, enables fast design of premium user interfaces.
Technical support and Service/Repair needs. Figure 1: Identification labels 1.4. Environmental resistance The CCpilot VI product has been designed to manage tough environmental demands. Much effort has been put into designing and selecting system components to provide a reliable and robust device.
Soft key numbering. Display with anti-glare glass Figure 2: CCpilot VI front side view 2.2. Rear side view The product has 2 connectors for external interfaces. Connectors are of type Deutsch DTM-12. On the rear side you also find the buzzer sound outlet, a Gore-Tex ventilation membrane and mounting holes for either a fastener in accordance with AMPS hole pattern (RAM 2.43”...
This chapter contains recommendations for installation, handling and maintenance of the product. 3.1. Mounting CCpilot VI supports two different mounting methods, a RAM mount or a panel mount. These two mounting methods are described separately below. For both fastening methods, use the appropriate M5 x 0.8 button head screw of type MRT (Torx) The recommended torque for the screws is 1.5-2.0 Nm.

Technical Manual 2018-10-19 Ensure that CCpilot VI is mounted to a smooth, flat surface. Fastening the unit to an uneven surface may stress the enclosure, damage the outer flange or possibly even flex the circuit board inside, leading to a premature failure.
2018-10-19 3.2. Connecting to power supply This chapter describes how the CCpilot VI is preferably connected to the power supply of the equipment it is installed in. The principle is the same for vehicular and stationary installations. Carefully read through the following sub-chapters. They are critical for designing and adapting the electrical system of the equipment in which the CCpilot VI is installed.
(S2) is closed and shut down when the switch is opened. Note that the on/off behavior of the CCpilot VI described here is the default configuration. Its response to the on/off signal may be altered using the CCAux API, see chapter 4.1 for more details.
When using shielded cables for Ethernet, the shield is preferably connected/grounded at the other end of the cable (and remains unconnected close to the CCpilot VI device). Below are recommendations for inserting cable shields and coaxial cables into Deutsch DTM plugs to achieve robust connections and retaining IP classification of the device.
Always consider personal safety when installing and operating the product. For example, in vehicle installations, CrossControl does not recommend that the product is being actively operated by the driver when a risk of injury to people or damage to property is present.
CCpilot VI Revision: 2.0.0 Technical Manual 2018-10-19 3.6. Transportation When transporting the device it is recommended to use the original packaging. Make sure that protective caps are used on all non-mated connectors. The storage temperature interval [-30°C to +80°C] must be met.
When the device enters operational state the soft key backlight will stop flashing and be turned on. 4.2. Turning OFF and suspending There are several ways to turn off the CCpilot VI device and also alternatives to enter suspend mode instead of completely shutting down the device.

Suspend mode and wakeup. When performing any of the above, the CCpilot VI device will shut down. The soft key backlight will flash and the device will beep to indicate that releasing the soft key configured for shutting down will result in the device starting to shut down.
CCAux API. See the software guide for details. 4.2.3. Forced Shutdown If the CCpilot VI is not responding, a forced shutdown can be performed by pressing and holding soft keys 1 and 4 simultaneously until the device is switched off.
CCpilot VI Revision: 2.0.0 Technical Manual 2018-10-19 4.5. Error codes The internal buzzer is used for signalling error codes when the device cannot start due to a hardware failure. When this happens, the device will remain shut off, but indicates the failure reason by beeping the buzzer in a special pattern.
5.1. Front panel 5.1.1. Soft keys CCpilot VI has four (4) software configurable soft keys. The soft keys may be used for user application input, turning the unit on/off or controlling the backlight. Reference to the software documentation for details on how configuration is done.
5.5. USB CCpilot VI has one (1) USB port. This port supports an USB OTG interface, i.e. acting as both host and device. Using the port in USB device mode is only for OS updates through a connected PC with appropriate tool installed.
5.7. Analog inputs CCpilot VI has three (3) fixed analog inputs with 0-5V range and 25 kΩ input impedance to ground. 5.8. Low side outputs CCpilot VI has two (2) low side outputs. These two self-protected, low-side switched PWM outputs have a maximum current rating of 1 A and can be used to control external loads such as a buzzer, relay or indicator lamps.
5.9. Bluetooth CCpilot VI models with P/N C000144-01 and C000144-02 have a Bluetooth module to facilitate wireless communication to and from the device. The Linux based operating system in the CCpilot VI includes a software Bluetooth stack for easy application development including Bluetooth functionality.
Use caution and avoid plugging/unplugging of connectors when the device is powered up. Always replace damaged cables. If a connector pin becomes bent the interface may not function correctly and the device should be returned to CrossControl for repair. 6.1. Connector layout Note that descriptions herein refer to the connectors located on the device and not the cable-side connectors which are attached to the device.
CCpilot VI Revision: 2.0.0 Technical Manual 2018-10-19 6.2. Deutsch DTM connectors, general Use caution and avoid plugging/unplugging Deutsch DTM connectors while the device is powered up. If a connector pin becomes bent the interface may not function correctly and the device should be returned to the manufacturer for repair.
